About Us
Stone River Glen is family owned and operated. We recognize that each event is unique and go above and beyond to make it feel that way. While Stone River Glen is a new venue, we are not new to the industry.

History of the Property
A Christian youth camp for over 50 years, the property was comprised of nine lodging cabins, recreation building, dining hall, separate girls and boys bathrooms, caretakers’ apartment and chapel. Lori & Stuart bought the property in 2023 and want to continue to allow people to enjoy the natural beauty of this special place through weddings, retreats, and other events. As they renovate, their goal is to preserve and restore the original buildings as much as possible, invest in sustainability, and enhance the pristine landscapes.
